ALL ABOUT TEAMS

Over 90% of MuckFest MS runners and volunteers are on teams. Why? MuckFest MS Teams are the best! Teams have more fun before, during and after the event. You'll pick a team name, then coordinate your muck outfits and team t-shirts. And when you finish, your team will celebrate your muck-tacular triumphs with a cold one in the MuckFestival.

Take a look at the team photos to see all the different kinds of MuckFest MS teams who do the event.

To start a team, it only takes one person who will register as a Team Captain. However, you don’t have to go it alone as the captain because every team can have up to two co-captains.

Bonus Tip — Naming Your Team: MuckFest MS teams come up with the best names. You can honor a friend or relative or pick something delightfully dirty or curiously clever. We love “punny” names; you’d be surprised how many ways you can use “muck,” “mucker,” and “mud” in your team name.

To join a team that is already registered, you can search here for the team name or team captain.

Team-Building Tools & Ideas

As we say here, the more the muckier! The larger the MuckFest MS teams are, the more we can support MS research and people living with MS in our community.
